DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Butcher/Eat Sapient in Adventure mode?

« on: September 16, 2012, 09:21:55 pm »

I was wondering if it was possible to be able to do this. I already have a civ that finds cannibalism acceptable, but I cannot butcher sapients in adventure mode.

DF Gameplay Questions / My Dwarves Won't Store Their Equipment in the Armory

I have a shitload of armor stands and weapon racks up but they just won't store them there. I even removed all weapon and armor stockpiles.

DF Gameplay Questions / Dwarf Cancels Store Owned Item: Item Inaccessible

Several of my dwarves have been spamming this error incessantly for years. I've tried checking the jobs screen, but the job never shows up. (Though I did catch it once earlier. The only job item was a loach.) I can't figure it out.

General Discussion / The Search for the Optimum Dwarf Fortress Laptop

« on: February 06, 2012, 03:39:56 pm »

I mean a computer on which you can play Dwarf Fortress.

I consider myself moderately computer-inclined. Enough to be able to maneuver around a computer properly and keep it functioning relatively well. However, I'm not all that great at understanding anything involved with hardware. My computer that I'm on right now is on its way out, and I need to get a replacement.

And I play a lot of Dwarf Fortress. It would be really awesome if someone could give me some tips on what to be looking for. What I want is a laptop that can play Dwarf Fortress at the best possible level for its price.

I need something below or very near to $1000. I'm probably going to end up sticking some sort of Linux on it because from what I understand, DF runs better on Linux-based OSes. As well, it has to be a laptop because in the near future I'm probably going to be doing a lot of travelling.

I know there's another thread on the best possible DF computer but I have specific needs and would really appreciate some advice on this subject. Also I'm a new guy but I've been playing DF for years now. Hi!

Bottom Line: I need advice on how to create the best possible Dwarf Fort laptop under 1000 dollars.
